Lyrics

Oh, where have you been to, Lord Ronald, my son?
 Oh, where have you been to, my handsome young man?
 I've been to the green wood
 Mother, make my bed soon
 For I'm weary 'o hunting
 And fain would lie down
 What had ye for dinner, Lord Ronald, my son?
 What had ye for dinner, my handsome young man?
 I had eels boiled in broth
 Mother, make my bed soon
 For I'm weary 'o hunting
 And fain would lie down
 Oh, where did they come from, Lord Ronald, my son?
 Oh, where did they from, my handsome young man?
 From my father's black ditch
 Mother, make my bed soon
 For I'm weary 'o hunting
 And fain would lie down
 Oh, where are your bloodhounds, Lord Ronald, my son?
 Oh, where are your bloodhounds, my handsome young man?
 They swelled and they died
 Mother, make my bed soon
 For I'm weary 'o hunting
 And fain would lie down
 I fear you are poisoned, Lord Ronald, my son
 I fear you are poisoned, my handsome young man
 Oh, yes, I am poisoned
 Mother, make my bed soon
 For I'm sick to the heart
 And I fain would lie down
 What do you leave to your brother, Lord Ronald, my son?
 What do you leave to your brother, my handsome young man?
 My gold watch and chain
 Mother, make my bed soon
 For I'm weary 'o hunting
 And fain would lie down
 What do you leave to your father, Lord Ronald, my son?
 What do you leave to your father, my handsome young man?
 My gold and my lambs
 Mother, make my bed soon
 For I'm weary 'o hunting
 And fain would lie down
 What do you leave to your sweetheart, Lord Ronald, my son?
 What do you leave to your sweetheart, my handsome young man?
 I'll leave her the robe
 And the high gallows tree
 And let her hang there
 For the poisoning of me
